The infrared is awesome, great night-time pics without scaring the deer away.

I know my cam burns through batteries a lot too (even without flash), especially in the winter when it's freezing cold. I'm sure lipo could be used but it's a matter of doing it safely and making sure not to drain the cells too far. My cam has a provision for connecting a 12V lead-acid battery (small deep-cycle trolling motor battery was suggested) so I might try that.

Sorry for the off-topic rantings!
